Johns Hopkins Hospital SlenderWall project Smith-Midland 2013-10-21 | SMC is pleased to supply its Slenderwall® architectural precast concrete panel system as the exterior cladding for the renovation of the 9-story Nelson Harvey inpatient facility on the Johns Hopkins Medicine Baltimore Campus. http://www.smithmidland.com/slenderwall.html After decades of wear, the hand-laid brick envelope of the facility began failing. The architectural firms Wilmot Sanz and Ayers Saint Gross needed a solution that met two criteria: one, that is was lightweight enough to prevent any need for additional superstructure or foundation costs; and two, that the facility would be able to stay operational during the exterior renovation. Slenderwall® met both requirements. Valued at approximately $1.9 million dollars, this project will have 158 Slenderwall® panels (27,164 sq. ft.) designed with a factory-applied Endicott brick facing, keeping in continuity with the campus and the original 1970's exterior. Johns Hopkins also chose to include factory-applied closed-cell foam insulation and Smith-Midland's proprietary H2Out advanced sealant system with leak detection. The addition of these options will provide not only savings in time and on-site trades, but insurance against future air and water infiltrations. In March 2013, SMC began delivery to the contractor, Whiting-Turner. Completion of production is set for June 2013. The short schedule showcases the benefits of Slenderwall® in reduced times and costs for production, shipping and installation, as well as decreasing the need for some on-site trades.

Sierra Wall II Highway Sound Wall Demo Smith-Midland 2012-02-27 | Sierra Wall II - Highway Sound Wall Demonstration of lift and set February 2012 In 1980 Smith-Midland pioneered precast concrete highway sound wall in the USA with the introduction of Sierra Wall. Sierra Wall was the first one piece precast concrete supporting column and panel highway sound wall system. Sierra Wall became the gold standard for highway sound wall as its use quickly spread from Virginia to Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and beyond. Now Smith-Midland and it's licensing subsidiary Easi Set Worldwide unveiled the Sierra Wall II which features a one piece pre-stressed supporting column with integrated panel and foundation column that extends up to 24 feet or more into the earth. According to the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials guidelines, this pre-stressed design eliminates the need for costly additional heavy steel reinforcing cages around the pre-stressed foundation portion of the supporting columns. This new patented design uses the combined strength of the integrated column and panel plus the extended foundation column to deliver the highest quality and lowest cost highway sound wall ever offered. The one piece design eliminates thousands of linear feet of panel joints that significantly reduce the sound attenuating capacity of current competitive sound wall systems available today. Sierra Wall II is available worldwide for licensing to precasters. Smith-Midland and Easi-Set Worldwide fully expect Sierra Wall II to be as successful as its JJ Hooks highway safety barrier, a runaway success with licensed manufacturers in 37 states and 8 countries. Like Sierra Wall II, JJ Hooks Barrier was engineered to be the industry's highest performance and lowest cost to manufacture Soundwall product available on the market. http://www.smithmidland.com 540-439-3266
First installation of Beach Prisms erosion control in Virginia Smith-Midland 2011-10-11 | On October 2011, Smith-Midland Corporation completed an installation of 22 Beach Prism erosion control barriers on the property of Bob White, Ingram Bay, Virginia. Beach Prisms have been deployed for the past 20 years in Maryland. This represents the first installation in Virginia.Announcing the first permitted installation of Beach PrismsTM in Virginia.Reducing Shore Erosion for Chesapeake Bay Property Owners.MIDLAND, Va. -- The evening of September 1st, 2006 was one that left an indelible impression on the minds of Bob and Chris White. That day Hurricane Ernesto roared up the Chesapeake and nearly cut their bay front property located at 270 Ingram Bay in Heathsville, Virginia in half. "I can't believe how powerful the water was," said Mr. White, "Our home office was knocked off its foundation, the pool was full of mud and debris, and the water had risen over our tennis court and was threatening the house." Subsequent storms have continued to wreak havoc and do additional damage. The Whites have tried several solutions to solve their problems: bulkheads; stone revetments and five wooden groins. None of these options did much to quell the ongoing erosion. Over four years ago The Whites came across a promising solution after many hours of searching the internet; Beach Prisms™. Mr. White was drawn to the shape of its parabolic curve, a structure he was familiar with from his years of working with blast technology and hydrodynamics. He knew the design would have a good chance of deflecting the destructive forces of wave action. Several years of working through the permitting process led the White's representative and the product's manufacturer, Smith-Midland Corporation (SMC), to a final approval meeting in front of the Virginia Marine Resources Commission (VMRC), on the morning of August 23rd, 2011 in Newport News. John Klein, a consulting coastal engineer working with SMC, presented statistical data to the VMRC representing 20 years of Beach Prism installations and testing. The board voted 11-0 in favor of the permit. The installation at the Whites began early in the morning of Saturday, the 1st of October. Tractor trailers traveling from the SMC plant transferred the Beach Prisms in 5 loads to a waiting barge. Omega Protein in Reedville, VA provided free use of their dock facilities. The full installation consisted of 22 pieces of Beach Prism (4'x4'x10') with 6 inch spacing for a total of approximately 230 feet of protection. Each piece of Beach Prism was placed parallel to the beach in approximately 1 foot of water at low tide. Installation was completed by Sunday afternoon the 2nd. The Whites hope that this will finally give them some relief from storm damage and either slow the rate of erosion, stop erosion or reverse the erosion by replenishing sand in front of and behind the Prisms. The estimated value of the project is $33,000. Smith-Midland Beach Prisms™Beach Prisms™ is a permeable, precast concrete product that works by reducing the amount of energy in incoming waves before the waves reach the shoreline. Waves pass through the specially designed slots in the triangular 4 foot tall by 10 foot long Beach Prisms™. According to Jay McKenna, Beach Prisms™ regional sales manager for SMC, "Beach Prisms™ is a natural way to protect beach front properties. The slotted design allows water to flow through, while dissipating the energy of the waves, thus reducing the impact they have on the shoreline. Open natural design also allows for marine life such as fish and turtles to also migrate freely. Beach Prisms™ have been proven in some cases to build back lost shoreline, by accumulating sand in front of and behind the Prisms."Beach Prisms™ are for river- and bay-front property owners who want an alternative to traditional armor stone, or groins and jetties. They are jointly permitted by state and federal agencies, including the Army Corps of Engineers. Smith-Midland® Corporation (DE) is a publicly traded company (OTC BB: SMID). Smith-Midland® (VA) develops, manufactures and sells a broad array of precast concrete products for use primarily in the construction, transportation and utilities industries. SMC has two manufacturing facilities located in Midland, Virginia and Reidsville, North Carolina. Easi-Set® Worldwide, a wholly owned subsidiary of Smith-Midland® Corporation (DE), licenses the production and sale of SMC developed products around the world.
